The General Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has said that no ethnic group has the monopoly to rule Nigeria.

Bakare made this known on Sunday during the Sunday service in his church in the Ogba area of Lagos.

He said that though zoning was not in the constitution, it had proven useful for Nigeria’s quest for unity.

Bakare said: “Time has come to sit on a table of brotherhood and that’s why I said a President like President Muhammadu Buhari must rise up above partisanship and above petty ethnic sentiments, like Abraham Lincoln, like George Washington, to say let’s sit down, Nigeria must move forward.

” It is bigger than any of us and it will be better for us to work together by getting the best of the North and the best of the South to think through the road path for the greatness of this nation.

“I detest the saying that a particular section of this country must not be trusted with power; no! Then, we cannot live together because nobody is going to be servant of anybody.”

He added: “This is not time for mutual suspicion; this is a season for collaboration. All the infighting must stop; it is like father and mother are fighting and the children are confused.

“The season cannot afford this; let’s mend the fences. Let’s come together and let us begin to pursue a strategic objective that will set Nigeria on the path of predictable progress.”
